Because of his pride, the fallen angel lost the beautiful duty he had been given. He was ruined, and he became the head of hell. In the end, he turned into God’s opponent standing against Him. We now believe in the gospel of the water and the spirit, but how are we leading our lives God? Is there anyone among us who has succumbed to pride, whether on account of outward beauty or talents, and has thus turned into an object of God’s hatred? If you have beautiful gifts or talents, you should not let them go to your head, for they have been given to you so that you would serve God.
God said the workmanship of timbre and pipes was prepared for the angel on the day he was created. This means that God had given this angel the blessed duty of praising Him. It’s not as if the angel went to a music school! His God-given talent was the ability to play musical instruments and the heartfelt desire to praise the holiness of God. Seeing God’s creation, his mind must have sprung forth musical notes naturally so that he could praise God beautifully. Like this, we the believers in the gospel word of the water and the spirit also have great talents God has already given us. But, if we think we are better than our brothers and sisters because of such talents and them to oppose them, then we will be ruined. If we the believers in the gospel of the water and spirit give up on spreading the gospel, and go out to the world to seek our own lives of faith would then be over in God’s sight.
I, too, am nothing without the talents God has given me. So I use my God-given abilities to preach the gospel of salvation that has saved me. I do not boast of myself before God. Everything I do is done for the glory of God; there is no other purpose for my work. So, if you and I were to let our talents go to our head and give up on serving God, then we will become just like the fallen angel. Today, in God’s church also, if you do not use your talents for God, God will not use your talents. If such people were to try to carry out God’s work, God will humble their hearts, saying to them, what you are doing now means nothing." So, we see that God chooses us and uses us as His instruments when we serve His work in unity wit out colleagues. In contrast, when someone ignores his colleagues and God’s servants, then we see God taking the duty away from this person and giving it to another person, saying,"Stop. I can’t use you here anymore."
